I don’t know about that, but he’s a damned liar when describing McCain. Either a liar or he’s ignorant.

They not only brought in the supporters, but the signs, too.

Just sickening. Lots of cheers... Some boos, then cheers, then loud boos, protesters yelling. Order restored, some scattered shouts.

‘Agreed to sit down with Romney’

Sounds like he’s hinting he bagged Mitt’s endorsement.

I’ve been trying to watch this on c-span.com but it just isn’t working.

I suspect they’ve packed the house with his supporters. McCain has consistently shown contempt for the American people and conservatives, in particular.

Coburn made a pretty good speech. He did make some good points about a couple of things McCain has gotten right — especially his attempt to fight against earmarks.

when he mentioned rommey’s name he stepped on the cheers and applause and continued talking to shorten the moment

I’m hearing boos as well, but the brought-in applauders are doing a good job of drowning them out.

We need on the ground report. Sounds like brown shirt tactics are being used to silent dissent

McCain just said that he cannot win without the base. That’s pretty SAD when the frontrunner has to kiss up to the base.
